Chapter 969: Gunship plan

"At present, what we need most is experienced helicopter pilots. We also hope that the air force and navy can cooperate vigorously with us, introduce them as soon as possible, organize training as soon as possible, and achieve actual combat capabilities as soon as possible. We are in urgent need of such armed helicopters in the battle on the border. ."
General Han's words, let everyone calm down, yes, the border is still fighting, and it is imperative to put iron wings on the army to support the battle on the ground at any time.
Beat those white-eyed wolves fiercely!
"In other words, our army has taken a fancy to the small antelope helicopter?" General Zhang asked.
General Han nodded: "Yes, we hope to equip it as soon as possible. We will import at least fifty aircraft for us to use in the frontline troops. However, we don’t need too many missiles. After all, there are not many hard armored targets. For tank missiles, we value rocket launch nests more."
When you find the enemy hiding in the jungle on the mountain, you can directly use the rocket to launch the nest. One rocket after another, it is enough to razor the jungle, and how many enemies will die!
Once this kind of weapon is used, it will be of great benefit to the frontline battle, and General Han has long been impatient.
At this meeting, he finally took it out.
Hurry up and buy it for us!
General Zhang said to Qin Guan, "Mr. Qin, it is better for North Industries Corporation to come forward and buy fifty."
"Okay, no problem." Qin Guan said: "After the meeting is over, we will place an order with Ji Guoren to determine the delivery date."
Having said this, Qin Guan continued: "However, this is a light armed helicopter after all. It is an emergency. Our army must also plan our army's armed helicopter plan."
The small antelope, with just two missiles and two rocket launching nests, is simply not enough to meet the fire density of the ground strike. In the southern border battle, there is no longer a large force to fight, and it is destined to be only a small force infiltration. Combat, this is also the enemy's best guerrilla warfare.
So, the duiker is enough.
However, the main enemy that the armed helicopters deal with is still the bear country in the north. The bear country is the battle of the large corps. Once the tank troops come over, they will definitely be overwhelming. At this time, the anti-tank missiles carried by the armed helicopters are natural. The more the better.
Take a look at the Apache helicopter, which is a typical representative of this aspect. There are 4 external attachment points under the short wings on both sides. Each external attachment point can mount a M-261 19-mounted 2.75-inch Sea Basilisk-70 rocket. Launcher (or M-260 seven-pack 70mm rocket launcher), a set of four-pack M-299 missile launcher with AGM-114 Hellfire anti-tank missile.
If performing anti-tank missions, all of them are used for reverse gear, then up to 16 AGM-114 "Hellfire" anti-tank missiles can be mounted.
Look at Han Guo's own Wu Zhijiu. There are two on one side, and a total of four can be mounted. This is a huge gap.
The Apache helicopter is a 10-ton class, while Wu Zhijiu is only a four-ton class. This is a huge gap in terms of external plug-in. When the Apache is flying so many missiles, it is still extremely fast.
Qin Guan introduced the Black Hawk and wanted to introduce the Black Hawk's technology. Naturally, it was for his own ten-ton armed helicopter to reserve the technology. The engine, rotor and other technologies could be directly obtained.
At present, the introduction of the small antelope is necessary to solve the urgently needed problems of the army's front line. How to solve the development of subsequent models?
Hearing Qin Guan's words, General Han said: "This is also a problem for our army, Qin, do you have any good ideas?"
"Bell Company once proposed to export AH-1 armed helicopters to us in the name of Bell 212 helicopters." Qin Guan said during the last meeting: "But, it must be the same as Sikorsky. When exporting to us helicopters, the related technology is impossible to export. We can buy it ourselves, but the technology cannot be obtained."
In fact, the export of the Cobra gunship is definitely more difficult than the Black Hawk. It is uncertain whether it can be bought or not. The only advantage is that this helicopter has been tested in actual combat after all, and there is absolutely nothing to say about its performance.
"Yes, we are also thinking about it. Looking at the world, this type of armed helicopter is the most advanced." General Han said, "But it's difficult to bring in."
Looking at the world, there are not many types of armed helicopters! Qin Guan thought to himself that he had considered it a long time ago.
Qin Guan went on to say: "According to the practice in the world, specializing in the development of armed helicopters is also using the existing transport helicopter technology. Now, Noodle Country is also conducting research and development of armed helicopters on the basis of their A109 helicopters. Look, we can join in the fun in this regard."
That's right, Qin Guan just thought of this.
The A109 helicopter, which is a flagship product of Noodle Country, can be sold to many countries in the world. At the same time, now, it is the era of armed helicopter arrival. Historically, Noodle Country people used the A109 helicopter technology to create the A129 helicopter. That was the first professional armed helicopter in Europa.
Ten years ago, the Eagle Nation Army's operations in the Monkey Nation had shown the important role of helicopters. In August 1972, the Eagle State Army bid for the Advanced Attack Helicopter AAH program, which eventually created the famous "tank killer" AH-64 Apache.
And Europa is also facing the torrent of armor from the bear country at any time, and it also needs a suitable armed helicopter.
When the General Staff of the Noodle Country tentatively expressed the need for a full-time anti-tank helicopter in 1972, this was the first one in Europa.
At that time, they had two options: buy a ready-made helicopter AH-1 or improve a helicopter of the country.
After testing and weighing up, the Army Aviation of Noodles decided to unite with Agusta Corporation to switch to the A-109 helicopter for a substantial modification. The project name is ELECC light patrol and anti-tank helicopter.
Due to financial problems, the noodle country tried to cooperate with various foreign companies, but eventually parted ways due to different needs.
In the end, Agusta Corporation separately developed a transitional light anti-tank helicopter. Then, in March 1978, Agusta Corporation and the Italian Army jointly invested 60% to 30% of the shares in the development of a new type of armed helicopter, namely A-129.
It can be said that this project is a transition from the A109. Now, Han Guo has solved the urgent need anyway. If we cooperate and invest in research and development, we can learn a lot of gunship design technology!
Anyway, the A-129 project in history has been plagued by insufficient funds from the beginning of its research and development. If Han is injecting capital, the noodle country will definitely be happy.
Investing in this project together, learning a lot of experience, whether you own equipment or learning experience, whether you own a ten-ton armed helicopter, it is all natural.
